Abstract
We study the electronic structure and magnetic properties of disordered bee CoxFe1-x, CrxFe1-x and MnxFe1-x alloys in their ferromagnetic phases using the Augmented Space Recursion (ASR) technique coupled with the tight-bindi ng linearized muffin tin orbital (TB-LMTO) method. We calculate the density of states and magnetic moment of these alloys to show the variation upon a lloying Fe with the other neighbouring 3d transition metals using arguments based on charge transfer, exchange splitting and hybridization effects.
